Military Check Points

Subject

Guam National Guard member

Description

Guam National Guard has set up check points around the island making sure that residents are not leaving their homes for unessential reasons. They are questioning people at these checkpoints on major roads and patrolling public areas to make sure people are following social distancing and stay at home orders.

Coverage

I choose this photo because it shows an extreme measure the government has taken to try and keep the island of Guam safe. It is intimidating to see the National Guard at these checkpoints and it helps keep people off the streets if they do not need to be. Guam has taken much stricter regulations to the movement of people and this photos is just an image of one of those restrictions in affect.
